broken driveshaft and rear end... I twisted the driveshaft, in the process of removing the broken pieces I noticed I wasn't able to spin the pinion so my guess is the pinion broke, locked up and that's why I twisted the driveshaft.
With the rear of the car in the air I can freely spin both rear tires in opposite directions, guessing this means the limited slip is broken also along with the ring and pinnion?
Not sure what I am going to do yet, money is tight. Obviously ditching the 10bolt is the right way to go but not sure that is an option for me right now.

You won't know until you take it apart. Good luck with it. Bob
